No. 15: CHORUS

MIDI File

All:	O that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and declare the wonders that He doeth for the children of men. Let them, let them give thanks, let them give thanks whom the Lord hath redeemed.
Sopranos & Basses:	They went astray in the wilderness, in the wilderness out of the way. Hungry and thirsty their soul fainted within them, their soul fainted within them, their soul fainted within them.
Contraltos & Tenors:	They went astray in the wilderness, in the wilderness out of the way. Hungry and thirsty their soul fainted within them, their soul fainted within them, their soul fainted within them.
All:	Yet when they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, He deliv'red them out of their distress; when they cried unto the Lord, He deliv'red them, He deliv'red them out of their distress, when they cried, He deliv'red them out of their distress. O that men would therefore praise the Lord, would therefore praise the Lord, would praise the Lord! O that men, O that men would therefore praise the Lord, praise the Lord, praise the Lord! O that men would therefore praise the Lord, would therefore praise the Lord! O that men would therefore praise the Lord, would therefore praise the Lord, praise the Lord! O that men would therefore praise the Lord, would therefore praise the Lord for his goodness, and declare the wonders, and declare the wonders, the wonders that He doeth for the children of men, and declare the wonders, and declare the wonders that He doeth for the children of men. O that men would therefore praise the Lord, would therefore praise the Lord, would therefore praise the Lord for His goodness, would praise the Lord! O that men would therefore praise the Lord, would therefore praise the Lord, would praise the Lord for His goodness! O that men would therefore praise the Lord, would therefore praise the Lord for His goodness, that men would praise the Lord for His goodness, would praise the Lord!
